What Are You Doing This Weekend?

My darlings, what are your plans for this weekend? Having drinks with friends? Reading good books? Working the late shift? My best friend Brooke is turning 30, and I'm working on her birthday present. Here it is...

(BROOKE, DON'T PEEK!!!!!!!!)

Surprising her in San Francisco! Since she lives 3,000 miles away, we rarely get a chance to see each other, and I miss her so much. So, using a flight credit (thank goodness!), I flew from New York to San Francisco early yesterday morning (I had to wake up at 3:45 a.m., ouch). I'm staying with my twin sister and her husband, who live out here, too, and we'll surprise Brooke tomorrow night. (Her awesome husband is behind all the planning.) I can't wait to see her -- I hope she is really surprised!!!!!

Have you ever surprised a friend? Were they truly surprised, or did they suspect that something was afoot? Do you like surprises, or do you prefer the anticipation? And, most of all, what are you up to this weekend? I'd love to hear your plans, my darlings -- big or small! xoxo
